The British Parachute Association Archive Home Page

The BPA Archive Project was created in 2011 to mark the 50th
anniversary of the formation of the British Parachute
Association. The Archive aims to showcase the development and
achievements of sport parachuting and skydiving in the UK, from
long before the formation of the BPA, right up to the present
day. The BPA has retained very few historical records from the
early years, so the content of this site has been gathered by
investigative work and volunteer contributions. Please feel free
to join in - corrections, suggestions or additions are very
welcome. Follow the link in the top right corner of the page to
contact us.

There is now a BPA
Archive Facebook Group where many photographs are
displayed awaiting the time to organise them. You can upload new
photos and information to that group as per normal within
Facebook.

Listed below are just some of the other items currently under
development. Please note this is very much work in progress and
pages do not have their final formatting or 'look and feel'. We
believe, however, that 'content is king' and that it is
important to start putting this online ahead of finalising the
style of the website.

We acknowledge these are early days for the project! There is much
to do to improve the appearance of the website (volunteers
welcome!) but we have hopefully provided some interesting content
and insight into the work going on.

We could not have achieved this without the generous help and
support of a number of people. These contributions have included
magazines, photographs, videos, other artefacts and most
valuable of all personal memories. All additional contributions
are very welcome. Please follow the link in the top right corner
of the page to contact us.
